Brightwell Aquatics CoralAmino
Information

Complex of free-form amino acids in the same ratios found within tissues of stony corals.

Beneficial to all corals (stony and soft), as well as solitary and colonial polyps.

Free-form amino acids:

1. Provide the building blocks of coral tissue in ideal ratios to encourage the formation of new tissue.2. Encourage new tissue growth to repair damage incurred during fragmentation and propagation.3. Encourage growth by budding and fission.4. Encourage vibrant coloration.

Brightwell Aquatics CoralAmino is a complex that closely approximates ratios of amino acids present in many species of stony corals; the formulation is based upon extensive research conducted on tropical coral reefs by oceanographic researchers. While the ratios of amino acids present in coral tissue vary between species, general ratios are approximately maintained, enabling an effective average to be created that will benefit not only stony corals, but also soft corals, solitary, and colonial polyps (e.g. Xenia, Anthelia, Zoanthus, Discoma, Actinodiscus, etc.). The amino acids are present in their most elementary form (”free-form”) rather than being accounted for by their presence in a food or complex nutrient; in this fashion, they are readily available to corals and their allies. The main benefit of this quality is the ease in which corals can assimilate the amino acids into their tissue for the purpose of growth and tissue repair. Secondary benefits of some amino acids are their role in enhancing the coloration of corals.Corals maintained under optimal chemical and environmental conditions are able to reproduce (both sexually and asexually) more rapidly when the required nutrients are available. The presence of these free-form amino acids is particularly important to corals that have undergone, or will undergo, fragmenting or other means of propagation in which some amount of tissue is damaged.

Instructions and GuidelinesShake product well before using. Turn protein skimmer and other forms of mechanical filtration off prior to adding CoralAmino to aquaria, and allow 10 - 15 minutes after use before resuming operation of filtration. Target Feeding (recommended): Pour 1 ml (~20 drops) into a small container and suck a portion into feeding device, then slowly discharge contents 2 - 4” upstream of target organism(s). Repeat these steps as deemed necessary. Do not place the glass dropper directly into aquarium water unless you plan to thoroughly rinse it (inside and outside) with fresh water before placing dropper back into bottle; failure to do so will contaminate the product and encourage it to decompose.Broadcast Feeding: Add up to 1 ml per 50 gallons of water in an area of rapid water movement daily for the first four weeks of use.Notes: Research indicates that amino acid uptake in corals takes place externally rather than internally; therefore, soaking foods in CoralAmino would be of little use. Rather, it is best utilized by target feeding specific corals and their allies; in doing so, the majority of the amino acids reach the intended organisms rather than ending up in filtration media or indirectly impacting water quality (as often occurs when indescriminately “broadcast feeding”).Add no more than 5 ml total of liquid food suspensions per 50 gallons of water in the entire aquarium system daily for the first four weeks of use; thereafter, the dosage may be gradually increased as desired.

Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption.Detailed information on this product and its’ use can be found on our website.Guaranteed AnalysisMoisture (max) 99.00%, crude protein (min) 1.00%, crude fat (min) 0%, crude fiber (min) 0%IngredientsPurified water, proprietary complex of free-form amino acids.

Comments:My corals love this stuff and have shown major growth since I started using it. I have a 120gallon reef tank with many corals ranging from softies to SPS. When I feed the corals, the main pump from the sump is turned off. I use this product to broadcast feed the entire tank. After about 15min, I spot feed my corals Reef Roids. I do this about 2 times a week. This product will get your corals to color up and grow fast.

Comments:I don't know what they put in this stuff, but I'm tempted to put it in my Cheerios. I combine with the Coral Tissue, Marine Snow(two little fishies), Koral Color,Reef Biofuel, Lugol's Solution, BioPlankton(liquid Life) and now I can only afford Cheerios--but the tank ROCKS!

Comments:I have tried several different products by Kent Marine and Brightwell in the past. But after fraging my Colt and several other corals began to lose color I decided to purchase this product after just one week of use my corals sprang back full of color and my Colt began to regenerate almost overnight where I had cut off the arm to frag. All I can say is WOW. I have never used a product other than a more expensive product that has made such a noticeable difference in such a short amount of time.
